Organic Vitamin D

Organic Vitamin D

Recently Vitamin D had a lot of new research evidence and it had more press coverage than any other supplement. Deficiencies of this simple vitamin are associated with increased risk of numerous degenerative diseases.

Vitamin D supplements, now recommended by the Department of Health, have soared with more than 200% growth. Demand for high strength, liquid and vegan forms has generated a rash of new product introductions.

It has long been known that edible fungi such as the white button mushroom are abundant in Vitamin D.  Derived from certified-organic Agaricus bisporus mushrooms, Viridian’s Organic Vitamin D 400iu Veg Caps offer an effective, vegan, and certified organic Vitamin D2 supplement.

Though there is controversy regarding whether Vitamin D3 (animal source) or Vitamin D2 (plant source) is superior,  in some recent studies, Vitamin D2 has been shown to be as effective as Vitamin D3 in maintaining circulating concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, other research shows D3 to be a little more effective. Both forms of Vitamin D are utilised and beneficial to the body.

Further research has shown that natural forms of Vitamin D may be more effective than refined extracts, making mushroom-source Vitamin D even more attractive. Not only is it an excellent source of Vitamin D, but it also provides a host of antioxidants along with riboflavin, niacin, and copper – all in a completely natural and organic product.

Now there is a 100% Organic Vitamin D available at Remedies for you with a green commitment.

‘Tis the season to be healthy

On the 1st day of Christmas my true love gave to me:- acute influenza and an infectious cold sore! Yes, it’s that time of year when thoughts turn to gifts, carol singing, peace, goodwill, excessive alcohol consumption, shopping stress and indigestion. Make your festive season a healthy one by following these easy steps to a healthy Christmas and an even healthier New Year.

– Protect your liver

Milk Thistle can aid the liver to recover from over-zealous celebrations. Research indicates that Milk thistle offers protection from liver damage. The detrimental effects of environmental toxins, alcohol and medication may be countered with this valuable herb.

– Avoid infections

Echinacea, Ester-C and Pro-biotics boost the immune system to help fight off infections – especially when you are in close contact with family, children or perhaps in very crowded night clubs. Burning the candle at both ends will suppress the immune system and allow infections to take hold. Ester-C is a patented gentle, non-acidic form of vitamin C.

– Energy and stamina

Be cautious of using stimulants to keep you going over the holidays, these leave your adrenal system exhausted and can lead to long- term problems. However, there is a herbal remedy from Siberia called Rhodiola rosea that actually supports the adrenal glands, working with the body to reduce stress and boost energy. It has been shown to increase stamina, alleviate mild depression and even increase libido in both men and women. Co-enzyme Q10 supports the body’s own energy production, the Kreb’s Cycle. A 100mg capsules can help keep you going through the party season.

– Anxiety and low mood

Consider Vitamin D or Rhodiola to help with post-holiday depression syndrome (PHDS). The ‘come down’ after the Christmas holidays can be excessively depressing. For some people seasonal affective disorder (SAD) with long winters nights can bring on low moods.

Neem – Herbal Insect Repellent

neem spray

Neem Herbal Insect Repellent is a scientifically formulated spray to repel mosquitoes, midges and flies.  It is suitable for all the family.  Mosquitoes and midges find their prey by using their highly sensitive antennae to detect the odours given off in sweat.

Insect repellents confuse the insects so they can’t find their victims.  Midges can detect even extremely dilute Neem oil at only a 0.01% concentration. Neem Herbal Insect Repellent contains 2% cold-pressed Neem oil plus natural essential oils, Bergamot, Rosemary and Eucalyptus, which are included for their fragrance and complementary insect repellent properties.  The repellent should be applied to exposed skin every three hours or as required.
